[Skincare] Escape from tanning

Biotherm SPF 50 sunblock

Ha!! I got it at half price!!
Told you, Galleria is a good place to do shopping!

After the first trip, we realised we both needing a sunblock badly. I assure you can´t spot  us out of a a group of indians by now, my mate was so upset with his skin tone, I´m.. not really ok with it, but I think I could live with this tanned skin if my mate is going to be such tan FOREVER.
The fact is, he wouldn´t be like this forever, to be on the safe side, I got this and applied it EVERYDAY. He did apply it, but the thing is we got to remove it like removing make up after day long, as a guy he might do it when I´m around, but he wouldn´t do it after all, as he did´t have a make-up remover! XDDDD

Picking Biotherm had 3 major reasons, where it was cheap (in Galleria), reliable (in accordance to my sisters, where I listen to their suggestion as I believe we all have the same skin type) and thirdly I used Biotherm before and it cause no skin problem to me.

The best part of this product was it didn´t have a bad smell like the one I used years ago nor fragrance, sometime frangrance added cosmetic wasn´t that good to  your health, so I´m aware of it (especially fragranced sanitary pad). Also, it fluidness make it easy to apply and bring no stickiness to our face. However, I don´t know if it works (slow down the tanning process), but I hope it can be a good barrier to UV light, slow down aging process and reduce white head (closed comedo).

[England] The last snippest of life

The place we stayed in Hatfield has a outlet mall (Galleria) within 10minutes walking distance.This outlet mall has a big range of branded stores, from Laura Ashley to FCUK, it was a pity that I´m not going to settle in UK, where I could get every single piece of furniture from Laura Ashley outlet store and transform my tedious room into a lovely vintage style.

Anyway, I´m moving back to my lovely home in Malaysia, I can´t ship Laura Ashley back. I leave it for my child(ren), they will do the job for me.

Back to the reality, I got something reasonable to save my crackled, sore feet. I have never done anything on top of this problem, until the day in Germany, it got so serious that my whole feet cracked even my toes cracked. Plus the non-stop walking tour, the soreness was inexplicable.

I was lucky enough to pack a sample size Mavala foot gel into my cosmetic purse, I rubbed it to my feet, it was amazingly refreshing, curing my soreness in a night, and it dry in second that I could walk on carpet without stickiness or adhering dirt to my feet.

However, my feet cracked so serious that using only foot gel has merely no effect on it.



As soon as we back from the first trip, we went to the outlet mall I bought a normal size of Mavala foot gel and a hard skin remover. After 2-3times hard skin removal, and various times of foot gel and lotion application, it resume a smooth texture. With a pair of smooth feet, I dare to use  it to smooth my partner hair, and play a silly phone game with him (shaking my foot right beside his ear and ask him to pick it up, XDDDDD)!!

I though I would post some culinary work on my last page of UK life, but shopping filled our time, and cooking was aimed to clear our stock, so it wasn´t that yummy.I´m looking forward to my new page of life in Malaysia now, so kicking the old UK life away with my foot gel post!

[England] The second last snippet of life in England

I'm not a sweet fans, seriously,

though I heart dessert especially cakes and chocolate,
but I hate dangerously sweet tasting food like those american dessert.
I'm totally aware of sweet food and drink,

 I don't drink sugary drink in my past 5years of life,
I got rid of chips and ice cream; I did exercise and I slept before 10pm.

Now I have to confess, whenever I be in UK,

I can't live without these terrible sweet,
I eat it when I feel cold, sad, happy, depress, excited, hungry or full, means
I must have it anytime in anywhere, and so leading a fatty life.

You don't feel guilty as Kinder Bueno was having a big sale 3 packs for 1pound,
250g Hagendaaz was selling at 1 pound, and Walkers (as in Lay's) was 2 for 2(pound),
you will regret if you don't put it into your basket.

I'll never ever make this kind of mistake,

so I was creating a bulk volume in my basket
as well as my and partner's tummy.

We're happy crunching and munching on them,
they make our UK life, and for god's sake we are helping UK's economy crisis.

No worry, no matter how heavy we are, our flight would never charge on your extra weight.
Once we get off the flight, the weather in Malaysia will naturally trim our fat,
there we are, the Malaysia us.

So why waste the big fat chance of stocking luxury dessert?!

[Denmark] Serene day in Copenhagen

A family picnic in Kongens Have (King's park), a park surrounding Rosenburg Castle.

Denmark is one of the city that I'd recommend my friend visit to,
it is a fairy tales city that exist in reality, which I truely really after.
And there, a great fairytale writer Hans Christian Andersen was cultured;
plus the most wanted childhood toys -- LEGO has been produced!!

Of course I'm a big fans of both Fairytales and LEGO,
they make my childhood, and so I made a pilgrimage to Denmark.

We're both amazed at how pretty was the city, and how delicious was their Sausage!
My partner said he could replace his whole week meal with denmark sausage,
after a month of travelling he proved it, as well as I did.

I did not take too much of photo, due to the bad weather on the first day
and my lazziness on the second day.

Well, you see, no one would pick up camera instead of lolling on the green grass,
in such a good weather, so I chose the latter, and my partner did the job.

This was the last place we visit to in Copenhagen, and by the time we reached the castle,
it was closed, hence, my partner could only have some exterior look in his memory card.

It was depressing? NO!
The park surrounding the castle was brilliant though it lacked of maintenance,
but the atmosphere was great and I admire such a green place for public to relax and rest on.
If I weren't wearing a skirt and feeling too hot, I must had rolled on the grass!!
